#Gamechat: What Series Need a Reboot?

What game series needs a reboot?

That was the question we asked today on Twitter as part of our now semi-regular #Gamechat.  Much like the Prince of Persia art-inspired reboot and the recently announced Devil May Cry reboot, there are several series conventions that are growing long in the tooth.  The answers we received were varied, but most centered around NES games that had gone astray through their most recent incarnations.  Below you’ll find some of the most interesting suggestions.
